An undiscovered area of the growing Cambodian zircon gemstone marketplace is the category of pink zircon. With a tendency towards a bright hue and a subtle beauty in its soft translucence, pink is a color of zircon that appeals to anyone looking for a rare pink stone with a lot of individual personality.
While Cambodian zircon tends to be a dark (often brown) color when first mined, it is possible for it to have a pinkish hue right out of the ground. It is more common to treat zircon with various heating techniques, which rely on set patterns of heat and timing to achieve a huge array of colors and hues. (This is how blue zircon is made, for example.) So pink zircon from Cambodia can be any one of multiple hues, and may be somewhat blueish or may tend towards the red end of the pink spectrum.
